意味
To become very angry and unable to control one's emotions.
文化的背景
Public displays of anger are generally frowned upon. 'Beherrschung' is seen as a sign of maturity and education. Similar to Germany, but there is a concept called 'Grant' (a specific type of grumpiness). However, 'die Beherrschung verlieren' is still seen as a major social 'Fauxpas'. Swiss culture values 'Diskretion' and 'Zurückhaltung' (restraint) even more highly. Losing control is extremely rare in public and very negatively viewed. In international German-speaking companies, 'Emotional Intelligence' training often focuses on NOT losing 'die Beherrschung'.
Use 'völlig'
Adding 'völlig' (completely) before 'die Beherrschung' makes you sound much more like a native speaker when describing a big outburst.

Never say 'meine Beherrschung.' It's always 'die Beherrschung.' Using 'meine' is a dead giveaway that you are translating from English.
